13 Spectacularly spooky Halloween cocktails for the witching hour

Sometimes a batch cocktail is perfect for Halloween. It keeps the host out from behind the bar and the guests can fill their own glass. But, a great punch isn’t always an easy find.

With this cocktail, the flavor boasts both a touch of fall and a hint of the tropics. Although pineapple and pumpkin are not usually a typical flavor combination, this idea is quite intriguing. The balance of warm and inviting with sweet and savory is a big win.

And, when serving a punch. Remember do not add ice to the punch bowl. That situation leads to a watered down cocktail. Keep an ice bucket to the side and use it to fill the cocktail glasses.
